About

The The First Years True Choice Premium P300 is part of the Baby monitor
test program at Consumer Reports. In our lab tests, Baby monitor
models like the True Choice Premium P300 are rated on multiple criteria, such as those listed below.

Interference: Interference can vary widely depending on the area in which the home is located and what other electronic devices are within the home or are being used by nearby neighbors. When you buy a monitor, choose one that operates on a different frequency from your cordless phone and other wireless devices around your house.

Ease of use: Ease of Use rates the presence and convenience of features of each device. For video models it also includes the picture quality of the monitor.

Battery life: Battery Life reflects lab measurements of continuous use of the parent unit with new alkaline or fully charged rechargeable batteries, with the loudness of each unit set to the same level.
